MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Russian government will not cut back on people and the country’s development and will continue to support sectors which managed to develop amid the economic crisis, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said Saturday.
"We will not economize on the people and on the country's development. We will continue to redirect money to those sectors which have managed to develop even during the crisis, and of course, we will help them," Medvedev said, speaking at the first stage of the United Russia party’s congress.
The prime minister added that this primarily concerns agriculture, industry, individual sectors of the chemical industry and mechanical engineering, as well as other industries.
